7 Wonders Board Game - New Edition | Strategy Card Game for Family & Friends | Perfect for Game Nights & Parties

Product Description

7 Wonders is based on a simple and elegant mechanic (drafting) which allows up to 7 players to play with no dead time. Players make their choice and apply all of them at the same time. These choices are varied and their impact is real. Finally, the game is divided into 3 Ages which little by little increase the importance of these choices and thus the tension in the game. The global mechanics and the care given to the artwork are used to immerse the player in Antiquity and have contributed to the game’s success.
A game plays out over 3 rounds, called Ages, during which you simultaneously play cards, one at a time, to develop your City.

These cards represent the various Buildings you can construct: resource producers, civilian, commercial, military, scientific structures, and guilds.

At the end of each Age, you go to war with your nearest neighbours. At the end of all 3 Ages, you tally up all of the victory points earned by your City, your wonder, your military prowess, and your treasury. The player with the highest score wins the game.

In 7 Wonders: New Edition, multiple elements of the renowned drafting game for two to seven players are getting spruced up. First, the new edition will come in a larger box with new box artwork and logo. Second, the wonder boards are now larger and instead of having an (A) and (B) side with the same artwork, they now have a day side and a night side. Third, the iconography for the cost of each card has been relocated to improve clarity. Fourth, the iconography for chaining (building without paying the production cost) cards has been revised to improve understanding. Finally, the rules have been rewritten to make learning the game easier. The award-winning gameplay designed by Antoine Bauza, remains the same.
